- SQL injection vulnerabilites

Two SQL injection vulnerabilities have been found in proftpd, a
virtual-hosting FTP daemon. The Common Vulnerabilities and Exposures
project identifies the following problems:

• CVE-2009-0542
  Shino discovered that proftpd is prone to an SQL injection
  vulnerability via the use of certain characters in the username.
• CVE-2009-0543
  TJ Saunders discovered that proftpd is prone to an SQL injection
  vulnerability due to insufficient escaping mechanisms, when
  multybite character encodings are used.

For the stable distribution (lenny), these problems have been fixed in
version 1.3.1-17lenny1.

For the oldstable distribution (etch), these problems will be fixed
soon.

For the unstable distribution (sid), these problems have been fixed in
version 1.3.2-1.

We recommend that you upgrade your proftpd-dfsg package.
